The advantage of falling into the camp is to break the formation and strengthen it. It is somewhat wasteful to use it to climb the city wall.
And there are only a hundred people now, so it would be very painful for Cao Bin to use it, fearing that the loss would be too great.
But he had to take action. If this continued, even if Zhong Erlang was given three days, he would not be able to capture Mizhi City.
Fortunately, trapping and landing first are basically the same, so they are considered professional.
"Retreat if things don't go your way?"
This was the first time Zhong Shiheng heard such an order from a general.
Gao Shun's expression did not change at all, and he said decisively:
"The ambition to be trapped in the enemy's battlefield is life-or-death, take off your armor!"
A hundred people behind him shouted in unison:
"The ambition to be trapped in a battle will lead to death but not life!"
With that said, he began to take off the heavy armor on his body.
Seeing this group of soldiers, they were tall and muscular, with gnarled muscles and expressionless faces.
Zhong Shiheng had already guessed that this was Cao Bin's trump card, and couldn't help but look moved.
Even he was a little reluctant to let such soldiers climb the city wall.
Seeing that a hundred soldiers were ready, Cao Bin and his guards rode forward slightly, intending to personally suppress the arrows on the city for them.
Seeing this, Zhong Er immediately ordered: "Fire the arrows and charge them for me!"
"Kill, destroy the city!"
Following his order, the Song army rushed towards the city again, and countless arrows weighed down the Xixia soldiers like a heavy rain until they could not lift their heads.
But when the Song soldiers climbed to the upper half, the Song army had to stop shooting to prevent hurting their own people.
The Xixia soldiers also began to fight back, with rolling wood, rocks, gold soup, and boiling oil pouring down.
Seeing that the offensive was contained, Gao Shun raised his sword and shouted angrily: "Go!"
With that said, the trapped soldiers with a sword in one hand and a shield in the other quickly rushed to the ladder, jumped directly over the three steps.
Then, like an ape, he kept jumping, and each jump was a three-story ladder.
In a short time, two-thirds of the way has been climbed.
Other soldiers who were trapped in the camp used their strong physical fitness to climb up.
The Xixia soldiers were horrified when they saw the Song army suddenly appearing in front of them. They gathered around and threw stones.
Seeing that the soldiers in the trapped camp used round shields to push away the falling rocks, the Xixia people also became anxious:
"Quick, boil the oil with golden juice!"
Several soldiers were about to lift the iron pot and tip it down. Cao Bin shot them down instantly with three arrows.
The iron pot suddenly rolled to the ground, splashing everywhere.
"Ah, it burned me to death..."
The surrounding Xixia soldiers immediately cried for their fathers and mothers and fled in confusion.
At this time, Gao Shun had already lied down near the city head. He tried his best to jump up and stood on the top of the wall.
Cut down several Xixia soldiers who had gathered around and defend a small area.
"good!"
Seeing this, Zhong Er couldn't help but get excited.
"Quick, do it again!"
Then he sent out two thousand soldiers again and climbed hard.
This is not only support, but also to relieve Gao Shun's pressure.
With more and more soldiers on the wall, the power of the trapped camp finally came into play.
Dozens of soldiers formed a formation with Gao Shun as the center and ran rampant on the city wall, killing the Xixia people into chaos.
At this time, a Xixia general noticed the crisis here and rushed over with his guards, shouting:
"There are few of them, drive them down quickly."
Cao Bin said to the sedan behind him: "The sedan, Wu Song, and Lu Da, all go up and kill them!"
In a siege battle, no matter how powerful you are, it is difficult to avoid unexpected events.
I was reluctant to use them before because I was afraid of damage, but now I don't have to worry.
Their strong combat power is needed at this time.
At the same time, Zhong Shiheng also sent out the other two sons.
The few people did not hesitate and flew forward... By the time they jumped onto the city wall, the outcome was already determined.
When the sedan chair lifted the head of the city's general, the Xixia people dropped their weapons and surrendered.
It only took a quarter of an hour from the attack on the trapped camp to the capture of the city.
Zhong Shiheng exclaimed: "What an elite sergeant!"
Cao Bin was not in the mood to feel emotional and hurriedly asked Gao Shun to report the losses. He was relieved when he learned that three people had been lost.
Fortunately, there were not many casualties, otherwise he would have had to vomit blood.
Because of the merit of being the first to ascend, Cao Bin immediately promoted Gao Shunguan to two levels and allocated 2,500 people to him for training.
This was also the main reason why he asked Gao Shun to attack.
The official position in the army is no better than that of a general. He must obtain real military merits before he can be promoted. Otherwise, rewards and punishments will be unclear.
Although Cao Bin doesn't like to follow most rules, he strictly abides by them in this regard.
The experience passed down by generations of famous generals is not something that he, a young man from later generations, can negate at will.
While everyone was busy cleaning the battlefield, another swallow came to report:
"Tell me, uncle, the 80,000 Xixia troops from Hengshan Camp are galloping towards Mizhi."
"According to the schedule, we will arrive early tomorrow morning."
Cao Bin's expression changed and he ordered:
"Don't let the army enter the city. Continue to besiege Mizhi."
Zhong Shiheng reacted immediately, his eyes lit up and he said:
"Is the marshal planning to lure the enemy?"
Cao Bin nodded and said with a smile:
"We selected 10,000 elites to hide in the city and pretend to be Xixia defenders."
"When the two armies confront each other, I will rush out from behind in an instant and burst his anus!"
Although Zhong Er didn't know the meaning of chrysanthemum, he understood Cao Bin's overall plan and immediately slapped his thigh and said:
"Wonderful, wonderful plan! If you prepare it for weeks, you will be careless; if it is common, you will not doubt it!"
"The Xixia people never expected that we would break through Mizhi so quickly."
"As long as we seal the city and prevent the news from leaking, they will think that the city has not been lost."
"When the time comes, they think our army will be attacked from both inside and outside."
"However, they never imagined that they would be the ones being attacked."
Zhong Shiheng said with some worry:
"Xixia has an army of 80,000, which is superior in strength, and has at least 20,000 cavalry."
"If our army cannot withstand his frontal attack, then the ambush will be useless."
Cao Bin said confidently:
"It doesn't matter. Although there is no time for detailed layout, it is still possible to modify some terrain."
"This time, I will teach him to annihilate his entire army..."
It doesn't take much trouble to lay out some gravel, dig some pits, and deploy your horses to create some favorable terrain.
Besides, he also has the trapped troops and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
As long as these 80,000 reinforcements are eliminated, the difficulty of determining the five states will basically fall into his own hands.
At that time, if the emperor does not grant him a title, he himself will not be able to justify it.
Zhong Shiheng was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Cao Bin had such a big appetite.
Not to mention 50,000 vs. 80,000, even if the troops were equal, it would be difficult for the Song Dynasty to win against the Xixia cavalry, and Cao Bin actually wanted to annihilate them all.
If the princes of the imperial court knew about it, they would definitely kill him...
At this time, Hengshan King Wei Mingshanxi was leading his army towards Mizhi.
Sitting on the Western Region BMW, he was smug and even a little impatient.
Both Zhong Shiheng and Cao Bin were mortal enemies of Xixia.
The former used a trick to kill Yuan Hao's right-hand man, which led to the defeat of the Xixia army, and the latter directly killed Yuan Hao.
If he kills these two men, he will definitely shock the government and the public and restore the country's prestige.
When the time comes to take advantage of the situation and enter the court, we can trample Wei Mingwei and Wu Zangyingpang under their feet.
Even the position of the little emperor is not impossible for me to sit in.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel happy...
